One Night Surprise

Chapter 471 Do We Need to Introduce Ourselves?

To celebrate Alexander’s discharge as well as Courtney’s birthday, Oliver had arranged a barbeque party at Duncan’s ancestral home and invited all of their close friends. Gale and Cameron arrived with their son and daughter while Bill brought a pregnant Natasha along. Alicia was invited too, but no one knew whether she would show up.

Gale’s youngest daughter, Apple, was not even a hundred days old. She waved her hands vigorously while lying in the cradle, as if she wanted to play with everyone, but her body was too small for her to wiggle out of the cradle.

Apart from Apple, Josephine was the youngest of the children. She was curious about babies and stood beside the stroller all the time to observe Apple.

“She’s so small.”

“Yes.” Cameron looked at Josephine with a gentle expression and continued, “You were even smaller than her when you were born.”

Josephine nodded in response. Seemingly thinking, she said, “It’s amazing that humans can grow from this small to this large.”

Hearing that, Cameron couldn’t help but caress the child’s head. “Can you help me to look after Apple for a while? I need to check when dinner is ready.”

“Sure.” Josephine gave a nod. She then sat quietly on the stool in front of the baby stroller to stare at Apple.

The barbeque stand had been set up in front of the swimming pool, and both Gale and Bill were working on it. As Alexander was still recovering, they did not ask him to help. Instead, he was in the house helping Courtney prepare the desserts.

Seeing that, Cameron walked to Gale and signaled him to look inside the house.

“Do you think that Courtney and Alexander are about to reconcile?”

After hearing her words, Gale took a glance at the house and thoughtfully nodded. “That’s what I feel as well, but Alex is still suffering from brain injuries and he may not remember this. Why not try to be a middleman later?”

“That’s exactly what I intend to do.”
